check out this site. [link to simulator.down2earth.eu] Gives estimates for damage. a 400 meter rock hitting earth won't do shit. Doom over folks. I amped up the velocity of this model to 20km just for extra doom potential. Had the asteroid come in at a typical 45 degree angle and it hit the atlantic ocean just off the coast near New York. Damage minimal and possible tsunami of a couple inches to a foot.

Yes, the thread title is correct.

Sometime around 7pm EST Asteroid 2005 YU55 will strike in the north atlantic ocean.
 Quoting: Mike Smith 1557609

bsflag
I calculated the orbit of the asteroid using only amateur observations of it, no professional observatory data at all. The results closely agreed with the official orbit. I took a quick glance at the ephemeris of that orbit and it showed the asteroid missing earth by about ~242,000 km if I remember right, slightly closer than the official orbit, but still a safe distance away. I'll be making a video showing the result in detail later tonight. Suffice it to say, the asteroid is not going to hit us.

I'll be posting the full details of the results tonight, including all the orbital elements I calculated, which is something you have failed to provide. If it's going to hit us, then post the "true" orbital elements that show it impacting the atlantic like you said it would... For extra points, also post the astrometric readings which produced those orbital elements.

I can tell you this; No emergency measures are being taken, evacuations,etc.

President Obama , however, Will be going on air at approx. 2pm EST to warn the world.

Im bring you this news because I want to make a difference.

The media has been instructed not to interview me.

If you live on the eastern seaboard, of any countries in the atlantic ocean, it would behoove you to find your way inland as far as possible.

The wall of water will be over 1,000 feet high and moving at miles per second.

I suggest you visit the Arizona meteorcrater website. The meteor that hit there was estimated to be only 150 feet wide and caused a crater 1 mile across, 2.5 miles in circumference and 550 feet deep. If you don't think an asteroid nearly 10x that size "won't do shit", then you are more ignorant than you appear...

Oh I know, it's clear that most posters don't; I started the calculations a while ago, before the thread was even posted as a matter of fact, as I figured it would be a good idea to independently check the official orbit prior to the encounter. Some people are starting to get worried about it a bit, thought not because of this troll.
